What ingredients are in haystacks?
Pecan Haystacks is a recipe that you can start and finish in very little time.
In fact, it uses only 4 simple ingredients: milk chocolate chips, butterscotch chips, pecan and chow mein noodles!
How do you make pecan haystacks?
Stirring often to avoid burning you simply melt the chocolate chips and butterscotch chips in a medium sized saucepan on the stovetop {until completely melted}.
This takes maybe 5 minutes. Not long at all!
Next, stir in the pecan halves and the chow mein noodles until they are completely covered by the chocolate mixture.
That’s pretty simple!

Pecan Haystacks make a nice snack or you can package them up and gift.
In the past when I’ve given these to friends and family, the response has been so positive.
If you do want to give to others, you better make another batch though, you’ll want some of these for yourself!
The whole family will devour these simple treats! I’m mad about pecans, it’s my all-time favourite nut.
This is why you should also try my Kentucky Apple Skillet Cake! Mmmm!
Enjoy the recipe!
